Artek’s artistic and cultural mission. A design between art and technology.

Since 1935 Artek has been the ambassador of an important artistic and cultural mission. Founded in Helsinki, the Finnish company outlines a pure intersection between design, art and architecture, creating furniture and lighting products with a vibrant Modernist approach. A significant element that asserted Artek's success was undoubtedly the pioneering work pursued by Alvar Aalto, an inspiration for several generations of twentieth-century designers and architects and a turning-point for the global development of Nordic design.

A perfect combination of "art" and "technology", mirrored by the very name of the company, that states a personal and avant-garde way of thinking artistic production.
